The festival was held on Friday 13th April at the Sandgate Masonic centre and was luckily very well supported by many masons from local Craft, Mark and Royal Ark Mariner Lodges. Those attending were able to enjoy 21 different beers and ciders ranging from Wells Banana Bread beer, apparently an acquired taste, to a Wild Billy’s Indian Pale Ale, which it appears 'went down very well'.

In an addition to these very drinkable delights, bowls of chilli with warm bread were served during the course of the evening by Jooles Meyer.

As can be seen, by the before, during and after photographs above, a friendly and successful time was had by all and raised over £150 for the 2020 festival. Clearly a very enjoyable way to spend any Friday evening and at the same time raise funds for the festival.
